Hey,

I guess the reason checking automake version is
to guarantee the regeneration of configure,
Makefile.in etc. For the people who just run configure
without modification of configure.{in|ac}, Makefile.am, etc etc,
I guess you won't ask them to install automake-1.11.

If my guessing is right, the popular method would
be packing autogen.sh with version checking.

we actually pack autogen.sh. Checking the version of automake in it and use it in configure.ac is indeed a solution.

Is there a better one ?

thanks

Vincent Torri
